We often hear:
“I want to do something!”
“How can I get involved?”
Many people want to do something to make a difference but do not know where to start - here is your chance. From Sept 2006, PSC will coordinate monthly volunteer days for people who want to get involved and get their hands dirty.
Goals
- Give PSC supporters the chance to meet with NGO/NPOs and get directly involved.
- Hands-on volunteer opportunity coupled with organization introduction.
- Create new community links and opportunities for local involvement.
- Each event will take anywhere from 4- 8 hours depending on the type of event.
- Before the start of the event there will be a 1-hour introduction to the nonprofit NGO and their work
- Hands on volunteer work will take 3 to 6 hours.
- Work will be followed by a 30-45 min discussion session.
Participation fees:
- 1000-8,000yen (Depending on the type of event.)
- Participants pay their own way to the venue – PSC will provide directions.
- Fees go towards PSC costs – including volunteer insurance, PR and event materials
- Projects are coordinated on a volunteer basis.
